What do you believe about the Bible? What kind of book is it? What authority does it have?
Why believe the Bible?
These are vital questions for every Christian, indeed for every human being. We need to make sure that we understand the right answers.
This week we're going to look at these questions in the book of Second Peter, chapter one, verses 20 and 21, where the apostle writes this: “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.”
How you understand those two verses determines what you really believe about the nature and the authority of the Bible -- and whether you're right or wrong.
